Arsenal.....lol.

 

[Jazzy B.]

arsenal will probably be the only team aside from bayern to score 3 at the etihad all season

They conceded 6.

Looking at Giroud lately, he's been assscheeks, touch just horrible. And the lack of crispness from this midfield continues. I like this group, but certain parts of the team, just doesn't convince me.

Borini and Jozy together at last.

We gonna act like Bendtner doesn't look better than Giroud?

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

after all this time, the lineup is finally 100% right

a bit weak physically in midfield but technique will win every time.

Tekkers and Clattermole in the same sentence

Ramires and Essien pairing?

There was an interesting confrontation after the final whistle. Arsenal defender Per Mertesacker was shown angrily pointing a finger at club and international team-mate Mesut Ozil.

yeah I'm definitely watching Real's game over Chelsea. top teams against struggle team, but atleast Real makes it look fun. Chelsea are so boring to watch this season.

 

[mastermind]

he ran into the tunnel and Per wanted him to acknowledge the fans.

Actually thought Ozil did well he dropped deeper and wide was extremely influential. We had our best spell when he took charge. Dude has had to play pretty much every game and today was a tough ask.

6-3 and im not worried. Today was a recipe for a disaster.

Lack of size in midfield hurts us as Giroud is relied upon to win balls. Giroud can be a negative in a game like this because he provides a vital service in the air and facilitating moves but he isnt good enough to really exploit defenders.

We gonna act like Bendtner doesn't look better than Giroud?

Don't start this shyt, Giroud has played almost every game possible since August as the starting striker.
The team has had little to no rotation since Poldi/Ox/Theo all went down at the beginning of the season.
They're tired, need rest, and more players in the rotation. Hopefully Arsene buys during the winter window.
9 days off!
